I finally stopped into SS after all of these years. I had a Shack Burger, it was about $10. It wasn't with that IMO. It was worth about $7. The patty was real thin and the bacon was really thin. The onion rings were good actually. They didn't bring ketsup or napkins with the food. Okay food, a bit pricey in my opinion. read more

Pros: Their vanilla custard is phenomenal! I also love their fries. The staff is nice & they are pretty fast. Mixed: They have a parking lot, but it always seems to be full from people parking there who aren't eating there. It's right in the heart of Little Italy where parking can be hard to find. The parking lot is great, but hopefully they'll monitor it better, The not so good: I typically get the chicken shack sandwich, which is hit or miss. I'm specifically referring to the chicken. read more

What the heck is going on you walk into a place ready to spend your money ready to buy food. You stand at the counter and no one helps you three people behind the counter all packing orders and doing everything else but actually serving people. I don't understand what is happening in the world. I shouldn't stand at a counter and not be greeted and served right away. Unbelievable. Don't think I'll ever come back here. I've ate here once before and I wanted to try it again to give it another shot definitely overpriced and overrated. read more

Decided to grab Shake Shack before heading out to an event with the husband; it was also located nearby our hotel. Location is spacious with plenty of seating and there is a small parking lot. I was pretty surprised it wasn't that busy, because the Shake Shacks in the Bay Area are almost always busy. Anyway, we ordered our usual Shake Burger. Food came out fast and tasted good, staff was quick and efficient. All in all, standard Shake Shack experience. read more

Shake Shack - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

Shake shack is amazing. I really wish they had another location. Little Italy is not the place to shack the burger. We need more Shake Shack around town. Little Italy is not the spot. Nothing like ordering a burger from a screen, too many options, I just want a cheeseburger and some fries. Service? There is no service here. Little to no human interaction. Funnnnnn. Review is for the overall experience of eating at Shake Shack not the food. The food is beautiful and delicious. read more

The lights were off in the bathroom. My friend was shining a light on me, and from another stall a disembodied voice says, "I'll fix it." Somehow, instantaneously, the lights came on. I don't know how that happened but I was thrilled. It was like magic. The staff has superhuman capabilities. read more

Always happy to find a shake shack anywhere close by to our stay. Walking distance from the intercontinental and Wyndham. Service was quick even though it was a late night order. Food was good as it always is. No complaints. Ambiance causal. I always get a double patty now for any smash burgers, very filling meal. read more

Food always amazing here!! Staff is also extremely helpful and friendly, better here than any other SD location! I've ordered here many times and have always enjoyed the quality and taste of the food. Parking sucks but there are nearby lots you can pay for as well as trying to find street parking. It's never too busy in here so it's a good place to sit and eat at inside. read more

My cheeseburger was fresh and tasty, I'm glad to report that my cheeseburger was not overcooked. It was cooked just right. My fries were crispy, hot and not salty. How do you say no to crispy and fresh fries? There is indoor and outdoor seating for big and small groups. I've been to shake shack in Central Park a few times so my standards were set high. I ate at this place when it first opened and I must say this place has improved, as it shows, this place has grown and changed my foodie opinion for the better. What I enjoyed on the food experience was the easy ordering process from the kiosk was easy. The cheeseburger was fresh and not overcooked. My meal was delivered to me within 15 minutes, granted it was a Wednesday night but delivering fresh and delicious food is a process. The cheeseburger's are medium sized so if you're a hungry adult then order two burgers. You'll thank me later with a thumbs up. The parking is limited here so keep that in mind but this should not be a show stopper especially if you're with a group. There is plenty of outdoor seating, the indoors can accommodate but you'll have better luck outdoors. This place is five minutes from the airport and seven minutes from downtown via car. There is a lot of lights to get through little Italy but if you have the moxie to walk here from downtown you can rest at each stop light as you pass through Little Italy. I found the lemonade, ice tea and shakes refreshing and complement the cheeseburger burgers in the spirit of cheeseburger, fries and a drink trifecta. There are a voluminous number of restaurants to satisfy your taste buds in this area so if you're looking for food to curb your appetite and is quick then this place will check that box off or walk another six minutes and pay up at another restaurant close by. I gave this place four stars because I've had shake shack in NYC and the food is at another level there that words cannot describe. I will return to this place when the timing is right. read more

Shake Shack - Trifecta. Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

This is a great spot for fast, tasty food--whether you're craving a burger, chicken sandwich, or even a veggie option. They've also got gluten-free buns and lettuce wraps, which is always a plus. Since it's Pride Month ‍, they're offering colorful rainbow sprinkles on your shake to support GLAAD, which we love! I tried the Banana Pudding shake, and it was pretty good--loaded with crumbled vanilla wafers and fresh bananas. Other limited-time shakes include the Oreo Cookie Funnel Cake and Campfire S'mores--definitely worth stopping in while they're still available! Ordering is quick and easy--they have kiosks inside, or you can order ahead online or through the app. There's plenty of seating both indoors and out, and they even have a parking lot (a rare find in Little Italy!) It's a solid stop for a quick, satisfying meal--and now's a great time to go grab a shake and show some Pride! read more

Located in Little Italy, they have their own private parking lot. They are either 1 hour parking or Order Pickup. There's also meter street parking as well. You can order ahead from your phone or order inside. They have plenty of inside and outside patio seating. We ordered right at opening 10:30am on Saturday and the store was clean and already had a couple of customers. The food was made exactly how I ordered and they packed the food carefully in the bag so they don't get mushed. read more

Great quick burger spot in little Italy! They're super fast with serving your food compared to other shake shacks in sd. A lot of seating inside and outside with a small parking lot. They're pretty fast in cleaning up tables too so you won't be standing around looking for a place to sit. Workers always ask if you need anything and bring it to you. Friendly staff and standard shake shack food! read more

The smallest burger ever. Expensive and small. I warned you. Hotdog was also small. Go somewhere else read more

My daughter loves Shake Shack and begged us to stop off here for an afternoon snack when we were vacationing in SD. Overall, not bad. The milkshakes were decent as was the burger. The fries were so-so but what I noticed was how unclean the place was. The tables and chairs were sticky and we had to clean them ourselves. For the price, I would have expected better. read more

Shack burger double should've got the triple. All the way from Hawaii, in San Diego late night little Italy. Burger is on point here and in n out is hard to beat. Perfect all around.

Embracing the cozy rainy weather a day longer, we decided to order some dinner from shack shack. Highly recommend adding the roadside onions to your burger, it's a must! It added so much flavor to my shack burger. I also ordered a side of fries and their oreo milkshake. I made my milkshake a malt, because why not! It's literally one of the best milkshakes I've ever had! My friend ordered a smokeshack burger, which comes with bacon, along with some bacon cheesey fries. Both options looked great for any bacon lovers out there! Great place for burgers, fries, shakes, and more! Our order traveled well and was delivered pretty quickly as well. read more

2nd time here, and I'll give it a solid 4 stars. I wish the burger patties were a bit bigger, but I guess if you get a double, then it isn't too bad, lol. This location is in the Little Italy area of downtown San Diego with a tiny parking lot nestled on one side. If you don't luck out with a spot there, good luck on the street. There are multiple parking garages and also $12 valets scattered down India Street. The burgers here are pretty damn good. I like how they are made to order and not like a McD where they have stuff ready and sitting on the sidelines only to be cold by the time you get it. That's so lame. The freshness here can't be beat, and the fries are really good imo! The Bacon Cheese Fries have a little spice added on top to give it a smidgen of a kick. I don't think I've had a shake from here, but next time I go, I'll have to get one! There's a limited amount of seating inside, but there is also a good amount of tables outside. The service is pretty quick, and there are a few kiosks you can order at if you are paying by card. Love the burgers here, but I'd love it if they were bigger! Thanks for another great time, Shake Shack. I'll be back! ;) read more

I wasn't extremely impressed with the food. While the burger wasn't bad the overall quality and size wasn't great. It's a bit pricey for a small burger. There's nothing that makes this place stand out amongst all the other burger places. The only cool thing I can say is that you can self order an pay. No waiting in line. read more

Shake Shack - SmokeShack- Avocado Bacon Burger - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

I had no idea there was a shake shack near me!! My co-worker and me decided to grab lunch together and she suggested to get shake shack. We walked from the waterfront front park and it was about a 8 min walk! Not bad at all and you get to enjoy the scenery around downtown - little Italy area. We did pick up so when we walked in the food was ready for us to pickup and we decided to eat outside where there is outside seating. The portion of my double beef patty burger was sooo good. I also love their sauce!! I paid extra just so I can eat more of it lol. The avocado was fresh and delicious with my burger.. I also ordered a gluten free bun and it was perfect for me since I can't eat gluten much... the bun didn't taste much of a difference to a regular bun!! Sometimes GF bread is heard / dry, but I noticed Shake Shack makes bomb GF buns!! The staff here are SOO sweet and friendly! Literally, my co-worker was coughing a lot and the staff told her she's CPR certified. It was the nicest thing to show her concern. There is a lot of seating here!! Outdoors is def more spacious. read more

This was my first visit to a Shake Shake. I watched a specula on Shake Shake on YouTube hosted by Jolly. They really liked the burger, fries and shakes. I ordered the Shake Burger, bacon cheese fries and a Root Beer float. The employees were very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The burger was rather small but tasted good. The Krinkle cut fries were okay, but were a frozen product. The float was good and made with vanilla ice cream. The burger was a little bigger than a slider and not what I saw on the Jolly show I watched. Parking is limited and there was mentally ill and homeless wandering around the business. read more

Ate here for the first time. The coworkers decided to go out for lunch and picked this place so I gave it a shot since I've never been. I ordered using one of their kiosk which are located near the entrance. Marilyn (sorry if I misspelled) was kind and helped me with the kiosk and their menu. When my food was brought to the table, I noticed that they gave me the regular fries so I told them and they quickly fixed the order. I had their avocado bacon burger and spicy cheese fries. They were delicious. I'd come here again to try their other items on the menu. The variety of lemonade drinks and chicken sandwiches they offer looks tasty. The restaurant was clean and it was fairly quiet so my coworkers and I were able to chat. There's plenty of seating inside and out. read more

We came in for a shake. Ordering is interesting. You can order on some self-serve kiosks located near the entrance. The screens really need to be cleaned hourly as they were a bit gross. Once you order, you select a number by picking up one of the numbered metal markers scattered around the terminal. Never saw this anywhere before but I suppose it works. FYI - bathrooms are locked and you have to enter a code (10-20-30 I believe). read more
